Slimmer thighs, firmer muscles, more energy and a healthier heart are all pay-offs you’d expect from getting fitter – but here are seven benefits of improved fitness that you may not have thought of…<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Better hearing through exercise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A study at Miami University found that cardiovascular training improves your hearing in the short term and helps to preserve it in the long term. Other studies have found that the least fit people tend to have the worst hearing \u2013 and that\u2019s even taking into account the number of exercisers blasting their ears with iPods… <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2. More creativity from working out<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brand-new research from Rhode Island College suggests that aerobic exercise can kick-start your creativity \u2013 and keep your brain cells tingling for a couple of hours afterwards. Activities that are \u2018no-brainers\u2019 and don\u2019t require you to put in too much thought are best \u2013 so pick running or swimming over rock climbing or doubles tennis. Also, don\u2019t go too hard, as the best creativity boost comes from exercising at a comfortable pace.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Higher libido from exercise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, being fit helps to improve your sex life! A study that looked at 8,000 women aged 18 to 49 found that in women who exercise three times a week, 40% report greater arousal, 31% have sex more often and 25% find orgasm easier to achieve. Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health involving 31,000 men found that men who are physically active have a 30% lower risk of erectile dysfunction than men who do little or no physical activity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Better quitting power through exercise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are trying to kick your smoking habit, research suggests that exercise might help. A study in the Archives of Internal Medicine followed 281 sedentary female smokers, who were otherwise healthy, in their efforts to quit. The study found that smokers who take part assigned exercise sessions are twice as likely to quit and stay cigarette free compared to those who don\u2019t do any exercise.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Deeper sleep after exercise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being active during the day can help you get more sleep at night. According to the US National Sleep Foundation, daytime physical activity can help you to fall asleep more quickly and get better quality sleep. Regular exercise can also help sufferers of insomnia to beat their problem. And, contrary to popular belief, recent research from the University of California suggests that even late evening workouts won\u2019t hamper your ability to get to sleep.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. More regularity from exercise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, we\u2019re talking about how regularly you go to the bathroom here! An Australian study found that regular exercisers are less likely to suffer from constipation than sedentary people. The boost to your circulation \u2013 as well as the actual physical effects of movement \u2013 are thought to be the reason for this. There is even a link between high levels of fitness and low levels of bowel cancer \u2013 though this may be because fit people are more likely to eat healthily, too.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Better focus through exercising<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The very fact that exercise requires planning, application, dedication and discipline means that every time you get your kit on, you are working on your character development, too. For example, a study of people training for a marathon in New York found that regular exercise improves people\u2019s goal-setting, organisation and discipline \u2013 both at work and in other areas of life.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
